Many of us only feel our best if we look our best. Excess body fat may cause us to feel self-conscious about our physical appearance. If diet and exercise don’t seem to be producing the results that you want, you may grasp at straws trying to find a solution that produces results.
Debunking Methods That Don’t Work
Freezing off your fat is a method that has gained popularity over recent years. The idea is that the colder your body is, the harder it is working internally to heat itself up, burning excess calories along the way. However, strapping an ice pack to your stomach or to the targeted area won’t yield the results that you want. Additionally, this can be dangerous, because applying an ice pack to bare skin can, and will, cause frostbite, which can lead to a multitude of issues that require further medical evaluation and treatment. Cryolipolysis, which is the fancy name for fat-freezing, only works if the fat layer itself is specifically targeted. Again, an ice pack applied directly to bare skin for an extended period of time can cause serious medical issues to both the skin layer and the underlying muscle. Only specific modalities, like CoolSculpting, should be used in an effort to reduce pockets of fat via freezing. The CoolSculpting technology specifically targets the fat layer in the human body, while effectively protecting the dermal and muscle layers.
Plus, in order for fat-freezing methods to become effective, they typically need to be completed a few times.
